The Golden Lotus Village had improved a lot since Xiao Yue's last visit. As the Hong Kingdom area grew with more and more successful exploration, the borders had also expanded to include a few more villages. After the military base of the east border had been moved to another village some miles away, the residents of Golden Lotus Village were finally able to heave a sigh of relief.
More and more people moved from the Hong Kingdom to the Golden Lotus Village for better living. The population and prosperity grew by leap and bounds within five years. This was of course directly related to Long Zhao Feng's achievement in maintaining peace in the east border.
As praises were pouring during the court assembly, some court officials submitted a proposal for Golden Lotus Village to be made into a proper town
with a proper town chief. This proposal immediately found approval by the King.
